Smile LE5 to turbo suspension springs

How much drop is there for an LE5 to borrow the springs from the turbo SS?

I read somewhere from SS NA to SS SC is 10.0 mm, and from SS SC to SS TC is 10 mm. So about 1" drop...is that right?

So if I got SS Turbo springs, on a 2006, would I have to alter my steering or suspension to accommodate the new springs? I'm assuming I'll get shocks to suit the lower stance. No need to roll fenders?

Don’t need to change anything but they won’t lower you an inch. It wouldn’t even be enough to notice.

You might get slightly lower but idk about 20mm. Shouldnt need to modify anything just from changing the springs.
